Auto-Collections for Scala

Dmytro Petrashko, Allan Vincent Roger Renucci

Modern programming languages such as Scala, Java and C# make extensive use of collections. A collection implementation represents a fixed choice in the dimensions of operation time and space utilization. Using the collection in a manner not consistent with ...

Decrypting Local Type Inference

Hubert Plociniczak

Statically typed languages verify programs at compile-time. As a result many programming mistakes are detected at an early stage of development. A programmer does not have to specify types for every single term manually, however. Many programming languages ...

Semantics-Driven Interoperability between Scala.js and JavaScript

Sébastien Jean R Doeraene, Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Tobias Schlatter

Hundreds of programming languages compile to JavaScript. Yet, most of them fail, at one level or another, to provide satisfactory interoperability with JavaScript APIs. This is limiting, as interoperability is at least required to manipulate web pages thro ...

Dependent Object Types

Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. In particular, objects can contain type members, which can be selected as ...

Call Graphs for Languages with Parametric Polymorphism

Martin Odersky, Vlad Ureche, Dmytro Petrashko

The performance of contemporary object oriented languages depends on optimizations such as devirtualization, inlining, and specialization, and these in turn depend on precise call graph analysis. Existing call graph analyses do not take advantage of the in ...

A Generic Algorithm for Checking Exhaustivity of Pattern Matching

Fengyun Liu

Algebraic data types and pattern matching are key features of functional programming languages. Exhaustivity checking of pattern matching is a safety belt that defends against unmatched exceptions at runtime and boosts type safety. However, the presence of ...

The IX Operating System: Combining Low Latency, High Throughput, and Efficiency in a Protected Dataplan

Edouard Bugnion, Christos Kozyrakis, Georgios Prekas, Mia Primorac, Ana Klimovic

The conventional wisdom is that aggressive networking requirements, such as high packet rates for small messages and μs-scale tail latency, are best addressed outside the kernel, in a user-level networking stack. We present ix, a dataplane operating system ...

Building Efficient Query Engines in a High-Level Language

Christoph Koch, Ioannis Klonatos, Amir Shaikhha

Abstraction without regret refers to the vision of using high-level programming languages for systems development without experiencing a negative impact on performance. A database system designed according to this vision offers both increased productivity ...

Translating Scala Programs to Isabelle/HOL, Automated Reasoning

Viktor Kuncak

We present a trustworthy connection between the Leon verification system and the Isabelle proof assistant. Leon is a system for verifying functional Scala programs. It uses a variety of automated theorem provers (ATPs) to check verification conditions (VCs ...
